London From My Windows (2015)
“London was only half-gray today. Strips of blue cut through the remainder of the sky, offering a little bit of hope. It made Ava hungry. After Queenie’s apoplectic reaction to her not having plastic, Ava had applied online for a credit card. It was in her pile of mail this morning. She never knew it would be that easy. Then again, she didn’t have any debt and she had a decent savings. And this was without mentioning that she might soon be the proud owner of a European flat. She’d put in her mother’s address in Iowa, and when the card arrived her mother had graciously mailed it. They weren’t talking a lot these days, but at least they were somewhat communicating. The mail here was delivered to a little room on the first floor, but Queenie always brought hers up. There was just one note from her mother with the credit card: You need this for? Her limit was only $1,000, presumably because she had very little credit to begin with. But a thousand dollars was plenty. She put on some music, ...and a black silk robe that she had taken to calling her dressing gown.MoreLess
